The Path to Selection and Implementation of Value-Based Contracts

Pricing: Free for members and $30 for non-members

Course Description

As innovative, high-cost treatment options become more available in the US health care market, there has been increasing desire among stakeholders to shift towards payment models based on treatment value and outcomes. For payers, these payment models also help share risk when therapies are approved through the expedited review pathways that offer limited evidence upon approval.

This session will review the various types of value-based arrangements with a focus on newer models and the current role of value-based arrangements among key stakeholders with examples of how best to select and utilize specific payment models.

Target Audience

Pharmacists who practice in managed care settings.
